•  NEVER leave cooking food unattended. Continually 

observing the food will help in maintaining an even 
temperature, conserve flame, improve the food’s flavor 
and lessen flare-ups.

•  To open the grill lid, slowly lift the handle to avoid burning 

in case of a grease fire flare-up.

•  DO NOT expose any part of your body directly above the 

cooking area. 

Your grill can cook a variety of foods. For best results, follow 
these instructions:
•  Trim excess fat from meat and poultry. Slash any remaining 

fat to stop curling, but take care not to cut the meat.

•  Frozen meat and poultry should be thawed prior to cooking. 
•  Frozen fish and vegetables will cook without thawing.
•  Salt food after cooking to help prevent drying out the food. 
•  Brush naturally lean meats with cooking oil or margarine.
•  Cook small pieces of tender foods in foil or on special 

delicate-food cooking grate (see the section titled 
“Cooking Methods”).

•  Apply barbecue, tomato or sugar-based sauces no sooner 

than the last 10 m inutes of cooking.

•  Turn food with tongs or a spatula; piercing food 

(especially meat), tends to dry it out.

•  The heat source is directly below the food.
•  Use for browning meat or cooking hot dogs and 

hamburgers, but check food frequently.

•  Use for skillet and stir-fry cooking, but limit the amount of 

oil and heat to be used.

•  Cook roasts, turkey or duck on low heat. Place meat with 

water in a foil pan with a corrugated bottom. Replenish 
water as needed.

All cleaning and maintenance should be done only when 
the grill is cool.

• Mild dishwashing liquid detergent • Hot water  
• Wire brush • Paper clip • Nylon cleaning pad  
• Soft bra`ss-bristled brush • Putty knife • Scraper

•  COOKING GRATE: Clean cooking grate with mild soap 

and hot water. Remove stubborn residue with a mild 
cleanser or scrub brush. DO NOT use a commercial  
oven cleaner.

•  GRILL INTERIOR: Remove grate. Scrape side with tools 

and remove excess grease and cooking residue.

•  DO NOT move the grill while it is lit or hot, or with objects 

on the cooking surface.

•  Collapse the grill before moving.

•  Clean the grill.
•  Cover the grill for protection from dust & cobwebs. 

Grill covers may be purchased from a grill dealer or
